Students will also have a chance to interact with industry leaders and share their resumes with potential recruiters. For more details see https://ccgrid2023.iisc.ac.in ------------------------------------ CALL FOR SCALE CHALLENGE SUBMISSIONS ------------------------------------ IEEE TCSC International Scalable Computing Challenge (SCALE 2023) is sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Scalable Computing (TCSC). The objective of the SCALE Challenge is to highlight and showcase real-world problem-solving using computing that scales. Participants in the challenge will be expected to identify significant current real-world problems where scalable computing techniques can be effectively used, and design, implement, evaluate and demonstrate solutions. Problems that have a social impact are of particular interest. Authors are invited to submit 6-page technical paper, excluding references, describing the nature of the problem being solved, the solution technique, and offer preliminary evidence of the scalability achieved. The technical committee will shortlist finalists from these proposals, and invite them to present their work and offer a live demonstration at the CCGrid 2023 conference. The conference will be held in person physically. One author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present their work and demonstration at a special SCALE Challenge session. A panel of experts will judge and select the IEEE TCSC SCALE Challenge winner. The accepted papers will be published as a companion proceeding (CCGRIDW) through the IEEE CS Conference Publication Services and available online at IEEE Xplore digital library. ----------------------------------- DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION (D&I) TRACK ----------------------------------- CCGrid 2023 is placing an emphasis on diversity and inclusion in systems research. The D&I track at CCGrid 2023 will feature eminent keynote speakers and panel discussions by researchers and practitioners in cluster, cloud and Internet computing from diverse backgrounds. We will also host focused mentorship roundtables and networking sessions for students, faculty members and researchers from traditionally under-represented groups to provide them an opportunity to interact with leading experts from academia and industry. We will be soliciting applications to participate in the D&I track and offer limited travel grants based on need and availability. ------------------ SUBMISSION WEBSITE ------------------ https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ccgrid2023 --------------------- IMPORTANT DATES (AoE) --------------------- RESEARCH PAPERS * Abstract Submission: Nov 25, 2022 * Paper Submission: Dec 2, 2022 * Author Notifications: Jan 27, 2023 * Camera Ready: Mar 17, 2023 WORKSHOP PROPOSAL * Proposal submission: October 21, 2022 * Workshop Acceptance Notification: November 15, 2022 SCALE CHALLENGE/POSTERS/EARLY CAREER & STUDENTS' SHOWCASE * Paper Submission: Jan 31, 2023 * Author Notifications: Feb 10, 2023 * Camera Ready: Mar 17, 2023 CONFERENCE DATES: May 1-4, 2023 ------------ SPONSORED BY ------------ IEEE COMPUTER SOCIETY IEEE Technical Community on Scalable Computing (TCSC) IEEE Technical Community on Cloud Computing (TCCLD) ACM Special Interest Group on Computer Architecture (SIGARCH) ---------------------- ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE ---------------------- GENERAL CHAIRS Yogesh Simmhan, Indian Institute of Science (IISc), India Ilkay Altintas, San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC), USA PROGRAM COMMITTEE CHAIRS Pavan Balaji, Meta Platforms Inc, USA Ana-Lucia Varbanescu, University of Twente, The Netherlands TRACK CHAIRS HARDWARE SYSTEMS AND NETWORKING Antonio Pena, Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), Spain SOFTWARE SYSTEMS AND PLATFORMS Purushottam Kulkarni, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay, India Alexandru Iosup, Vrije University, The Netherlands ML FOR SYSTEMS, AND SYSTEMS FOR ML Min Si, Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), USA Kyle Chard, University of Chicago, USA FUTURE COMPUTE CONTINUUM Guillaume Pierre, University of Rennes, France Maria Carla Calzarossa, University of Pavia, Italy APPLICATIONS AND TRANSLATION David Abramson, The University of Queensland, Australia ARTIFACTS EVALUATION COMMITTEE CHAIRS Daniel S.

01 Nov '22

I'm looking for a postdoctoral researcher to work with me as part of the Melbourne ARC Hub for Digital Bioprocess Development. This 3-year position will examine how relatively sparse high-quality data can be supplemented with lower quality data to enable ‘multi-fidelity’ optimisation for improved decision support for bioprocesses.
